The
time keeping system of the Mayans was a combination of several cycles
that meshed together, marking the movement of the Sun, Moon and Venus.Their sacred calendar, the Tzolkin, is based on the cycles of
the Pleiades, encompassing 26,000 years.This is reflected in the Tzolkin by 260 days, pairing the
numbers from one through thirteen with a sequence of twenty day-names.
Thirteen is the vibrational force that is found in all things, the source of
all knowledge in the galaxy, and is representative of movement. The twenty is derived from the product of
number four,
representing Measure, and five, the number of the primary matrix
structure (consisting of the center and four cardinal
points).

The Tzolkin is known as the Long Count because it deals with
large cycles of time.The
Sun/glyphs of the calendar represent cosmic memory activation tools that
interact with your DNA, the memory of the body.Therefore, the calendar is not only an exceptionally accurate
map of the cycles of the cosmos, but is also a tool for accelerating
and activating our memory of who we are in relationship to the truth
behind the mystery of the cosmos.Each glyph is charged with precise information that activates
our emotions in very specific, personal ways.

The
hierarchy of days is as follows:

Day =
Kin (keen)

Month
of 20 days = Uinal

Year of
360 days = Tun (toon)

20 Tuns
= K’atun (k’a toon)

20
K`atuns = Baktun (backtoon)

"The emergence of humankind - Homo Sapiens - represents a
particular stage in the evolutionary cycle of a star system, a stage
in which the purposive integration of the four levels of
consciousness becomes a distinct planetary possibility. The
stage, Homo Sapiens, has a duration of 26,000 tun or five great
cycles of 5,200 tun each. The 26,000-tun cycle is roughly
equivalent to the so-called Platonic Great Year. The 5,200-tun
cycle is but the fifth or last stage of the current evolutionary cycle. What we are experiencing is the climax of our
particular species and evolutionary stage - the very last 26 years
of a cycle some 26,000 years in length!" (Jose Arguelles,
The Mayan Factor, p. 175)

Where do we go from here?This 26,000-year cycle is slated to end on December 21,
2012.We are now
in the last k’atun of the cycle, stage 13, AHAU.
Thirteen, the foundation movement in all things, is the most
powerful of the galactic pulsation rays. With the morphogenetic quality
of “Complete
Transformation," AHAU should lead us into spiritual
regeneration and a planetary golden age.On December 21, 2012, a rare celestial alignment will
culminate, aligning the galactic and solar planes.At this point, the winter solstice sun will conjunct
the Milky Way, creating a “sky portal” in the “dark
rift” of the Milky Way.The morphogenetic quality beginning on this date, 1
IMIX, will be
“Galactic Synchronization.”

“The unique moment, the moment of total
planetary synchronization, 13.0.0.0.0 on the beam, will arrive – the closing out not only of the Great Cycle, but of the
evolutionary interim called Homo Sapiens.Amidst festive preparation and awesome galactic-solar
signs psychically received, the human race, in harmony with
the animal and other kingdoms and taking its rightful place in
the great electromagnetic sea, will unify as a single circuit.Solar and galactic sound transmissions will inundate
the planetary field.At
last, Earth will be ready for the emergence into
inter-planetary civilization.Then, as if a switch were being thrown, a great voltage
will race through this finally synchronized and integrated
circuit called humanity.The Earth itself will be illumined.”(Arguelles, p. 194)

ARTICLE: THE MAYAN CALENDAR AND HUMANITY'S PATH TOWARDS ENLIGHTENMENT by Carl Johan Calleman, Ph.D.. In this article, Calleman predicts a unification of the modern expressions of some of the most advanced ancient traditions of the West and the East; the Mayan and the Vedic. In this unification it seems that it is the West, the Maya and some other Native American peoples, that is providing the calendrical knowledge about the cosmic plan, while it is the East, the Vedic and Buddhist traditions that is carrying the time-less wisdom of the Self. The practical unification of these thought systems and traditions is then brought about by all those that are taking a path towards Enlightenment And according to the Mayan calendar, the time for this is now.

ARTICLE: THE NEXT NINE YEARS: by Carl Johan Calleman, Ph.D. in conjunction with Ian Lungold. In this article, the history and meaning of the Mayan calendar is explored, as well as its impact on civilization today and in the future. Dr. Calleman explains that a new galactic creation cycle began in 1999, and we will continue to see accelerated changes in predictable directions until 2011 when another new creation cycle will begin, leading to universal consciousness and the end of linear history.
